Story

A group of us from the Widening Participation Team have set ourselves a challenge to take part in the Ikano Robin Hood Mini or Half Marathon to raise vital funds for the Children's Brain Tumour Research Centre at the University of Nottingham. 

All donations go directly to the charity to contribute to life saving research equipment to support the diagnosis and treatment of children's brain tumours.

  • In the UK, 10 children are diagnosed with a brain tumour each week.
  • 7 out of 10 children will now survive the disease - more than ever before. 
  • Yet brain tumours remain the biggest cancer killer of children and young adults
  • two thirds of those who do survive are often left with disabilities - life-long damage caused by both the tumour itself and the intensive treatments required to save their young lives
  • Brain tumour research receives less than 1% of the UK's cancer research funding
